Chris,
	Let me get this straight.  You are saying that you feel that Lockman 
intends Matthew 9:1 to be it's own paragraph?  One verse.
And from your quote below, you also feel that they intend for Rev 13:1 
to be it's own paragraph?

	I wholeheartedly disagree, and don't feel we can solve this by more 
traffic.  I appeal to Caesar.  (Steve, you around?)

	Patrick, I would argue that if an entire paragraph can exist inside of 
one verse, then <p> should be allow in <verse>.  Any chance you could 
just add <p> to <verse> for me?


	Everyone, after spending a week arguing for a practicle addition for a 
real world case that I feel is necessary, I'm very discouraged to not 
get any concessions.  We have added so many other things that go against 
the rules you all cite: we have page breaks-- why not force them to 
containers.  We have line breaks-- same argument.  I'm just frustrated 
to have to spend one week on a real world problem that I can't get solved.

	I don't have time to defend my practicle position any longer against 
idealisms.  Please vote and let me know if I'll need to use non-OSIS 
recognized tags to do my paragraph breaks, continuation quotes, and Old 
Testament citations.


	-Troy.
